ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- Over and over again the Denver Broncos, a group of players with wide-ranging personalities, have heard coach Gary Kubiak break down the rules of personal engagement.
Time after time Kubiak has stood in the front of the team meeting room and offered one of his favorite directives, that "we want our players to be themselves, but to be their best selves."
Throughout last season's title run the Broncos consistently showed that big personality, especially on defense. They practiced "loud" as Kubiak put it, but they always put in the work, always stayed together, and when it was all said and done they held the trophy aloft.
